First Post of the Year

Woah. I haven't posted in...forever. Twenty-seven days. That's pretty much unacceptable.

I have no idea how time passed by so quickly. I've pretty much neglected my blog AND my website's blog, again, which is pretty weird considering I had been doing a great job keeping up with them.

Well, anyway, my last post was really, really short and was a poor half-attempt of a blog entry. To be fair, it was before we were supposed to leave for Houston and I only had a few minutes, but still.

Anyway, Sarah Spiritheart made a New Year's Resolution post on her blog so I guess I'll do the same (albeit like twenty-seven days after I was supposed to). Problem is, I don't really know any resolutions. Yeah, but it's pretty hard to be better when you're already perfect. (Seriously though, I've been thinking about resolutions from time to time since the beginning of the new year 2012 and I haven't really been able to come up with anything.)

Oooh! I got it!

1.) Write more.

Definitely write a lot more. During the past few days I've actually been writing quite a bit and I forgot how awesome it feels to be writing. I've even got a half-new story idea coming along (What? Another one? Geez, woman, stick to just a few projects!). For now it's called "Lacrimosa" for lack of a better name because I am horrible at titles and I just use the first thing that pops to mind. Anyway, Now I think I'm going to be aiming for at least...2-3 pages a day.

At lunch today I re-read the first part of Cori Deaththorn that I'd printed out and it made me want to read more and find out more about the characters because to me they're so lovable, yaddah yaddah yaddah, and considering I haven't even touched or looked at Part 2 I will definitely work a LOT more on that. It's been what, three months since that first part? Plus it was short, too, so expect more work on my Wizard101 stuff! :D I'm actually working on it right now as I'm typing this up. Also, I was thinking about just how AWESOME Wizard101 fan-fiction is/can be during lunch, so as of now I am officially hyped.

Ahh, you cannot describe the inexplicable joy I am having right now at the prospect of writing more. <3

2.) Blog more!

This shouldn't be hard. I love blogging and the "blogosphere" of wonderful Wizard101 fan-fiction writers! :D Plus I was doing an especially great job on my website's blog. Speaking of which I'll have to also update later (not that anyone actually reads it).

So...once every two-to-three days sounds good.

3.) Write (a LOT) longer parts!

A lot a lot longer! :D

4.) Babble/Ramble less!

Maybe "stop acting like I have so many readers to disappoint" should be included, but it's probably annoying and headache-inducing to have to read through a super-long post that's 90% babbling about my daily life. From now on I'll try to keep my Wizard101 posts strictly about my fan-fiction and things pertaining to it and I'll babble on my website's blog :D

5.) Be nicer!

Self-explanatory.

6.) Pray more.

Ditto.

7.) Work harder in school

I'm actually a huge slacker in school. Under-achiever. Heh. Heh heh. So I'll try to work harder in schoolwork, pay attention more, etc.

+ Get organized

I'm also terrible at organizing. Go figure.

Well, you guys probably are bored to death already, but this is going to be my new Holy Seven Commandments for the new 2012 year (subject to change). See you later! :D
